Keep Your Head Up

I spent my time watchin' the spaces that have grown between usAnd I cut my mind on second best or the scars that come with the greenessAnd I gave my eyes to the boredom, still the seabed wouldn't let me inAnd I tried my best to embrace the darkness in which I swim

I'm walkin' back down this mountainWith the strength of a turnin' tideOh, the wind's so soft on my skinThe sun so hard upon my sideOh, lookin' out at this happinessI search for between the sheetsOh, feelin' blind and realizeAll I was searchin' for was meOoh, all I was searchin' for was me

I saw a friend of mine the other dayAnd he told me that my eyes were gleamin'Oh, I said I had been away, and he knewOh, he knew the depths I was meanin'And it felt so good to see his faceOr the comfort invested in my soulOh, to feel the warmth of a smileWhen he said, "I'm happy to have you homeOoh, I'm happy to have you home"
